I’m taking my former employer to an employment tribunal for discrimination and failure to make reasonable adjustments. They have failed to answer one of my major allegations, saying only that they deny this allegation. My question is , can I ask the employment tribunal to force them to address this point specifically.

Both parties are expected to make it very clear either the nature of the claims or the defence to these claims. If your employer has only made a blanket denial to your claims, without addressing specifics, did they indicate whether they would be providing a supplementary document known as a Grounds of Resistance?
If not, then you you have a few options:
1. Make an application to the Employment Tribunal (ET) asking them to order your employer to clarify their position on the specific allegation.
2. Using Case Management Orders which is where the ET issues orders as part of case management requiring your employer to provide additional information in the defence of your claims.
3. If there is a Preliminary Hearing (PHR) you can bring the issue then.

I do my best to provide good practical advice, however I do so without liability.
